How to Apply Perfume Properly
When it comes to wearing perfume, most people only give a passing thought as to how they are applying it. When applied correctly perfume should be subtle and pleasant as opposed to strong and overwhelming. Before your next opportunity to use your favorite perfume, it is beneficial to know how to properly apply it.
- Apply your perfume 15 minutes before you are planning to leave home. This give it time to mellow on your skin after the initial application.
- Spray your perfume on your pulse points, which are behind your ears, the back of your knees and the crook of your elbows. Apply the scent in no more than four spots to avoid too strong of an application. As your skin warms the perfume scent will spread out.
- Pour your perfume in a vial if you are worried about over spraying. This way you will be able to dab the perfume on your pulse points in a more controlled manner.
- Pay attention to the weather. If it is the middle of summer or just a hot day, apply less of your perfume than you would if the weather were cooler.
